Students are using AI's to write essays, while teachers are using AI's to grade them, so students can shackle themselves into a lifetime bondage of labor exploitation that they need the college degree for, which incidentally are also jobs that are rapidly vanishing to AI.

It's impressively stupid.

Obergefell v. Hodges made me believe in the whole "arc of history bends towards justice." In the 90s, I didn't think gay marriage would be legalized in my lifetime because homophobia was so deeply ingrained. We would have never gotten here without the decision and now it may be overturned.

Brilliant! This statement makes exactly the same amount of sense.

Absolutely my favorite book

the core idea that can radicalize people is so simple:

there is enough.

there is enough food to feed everyone. enough resources to house everyone. money and technology and medicine to stop the suffering of people around the globe.

once you accept that there's only one question:

why don't we?

To spell it out, the reason I hate democrats so much and criticize them more than I do republicans is because they take up all the space for opposition to republicans and use that space to give republicans whatever the fuck they want.

As a Kansas girl, I really love this. It reminds me of home.

This sums up how a lot of us feel. I’m Gen X so I was crazy for the computer, for what it could do. I worked as a computer journalist a few times. I love games and tech and all that stuff.

Where we are now isn’t that. This is the worst kids in the world being allowed to be their very worst selves.

On the one hand, apparently I'm not allowed to pee anywhere when I'm out and about.

On the other, impending nuclear annihilation.

From the sublime to the fucking ridiculous. What's the point of anything any more?

What happened in Boulder is absolutely horrific.

What happened on October 7th was horrific.

What's happening in Gaza is horrific.

NONE of the above are justified.

Hatred spawns more hatred.

STOP. KILLING. PEOPLE.

Rising like the gibbous
A gathering crescendo
Resolute resplendence
As swelling power grows

There is a new day dawning
Over this world of woes
And I arise to meet it
A discordant caw of crows

A whirlwind and a torrent
Before softer breezes blow
A countenance of clouds
Devouring my glow

Indignant and resigned
Disaster well composed
Fury my intention
To guide the wellspring's flow

Taylor is living free in trump's head.....

But you got a f****t, a t****y to boot
And instead of a mother, I've a bigoted brute
So I hope you're as happy as a mama can be
Who chooses her hates o'er her own family

Happy Mother's Day 🌸

I have memories of you that are precious to me
But that's a two way street, you see
You wanted me holy, pure as a dove
And I wanted your unconditional love

Must not look at the Doomses. Master protects poor Smeagol from the Doomses.

May the fourth be with you....

Redhats will believe anything

It's getting so bad I'm about to leave the house. On my day off. To go stand with other people. In meatspace.

Fact Check: Trump's HHS Review On Trans Care Filled With Lies, Pseudoscience The review, which was made possible by an executive order calling transgender healthcare "mutilation," reached its predetermined conclusion on its May 1st publication date.

1. Today, the Trump administration's HHS Dept., under RFK Jr., released a review of transgender healthcare.

It has no authors. It pushes pseudoscience and conversion therapy. It does not follow a scientific process.

My fact check of the Trump HHS review.

I see the breadcrumb trails they are leaving:

1.) Deny and discount neurodiversity as pathological and incompatible with societal integration, setting the stage for mass institutuonalism.

2.) Establish a correlation between autism and transgender experience through a "study" based on (1/4)

We never get a voice. It's always about what cis folk think or feel about us. These people will bemoan their grief at the loss of their trans child that they cut off, and never even consider the trans child that is grieving the family that couldn't just love them for who they are.
